Chapter 585: Be reasonable

The sound of the guzheng like flowing clouds and water is spread through the palace curtain for a long time, and the lingering sound lingers.

There was also a gentle voice singing in the middle. Although the lyrics were not very real, Chen Kefu, who came from outside, could hear this in the north.

The palace maids standing in front of Princess Chen's bedroom showed a look of surprise when they saw Chen Kefu's arrival. As the palace maids and eunuchs around Princess Chen, they cared more about Chen Kefu's favor for his master than Changsun Wugui. Princess Chen is always so open-minded and never takes the initiative to compete for favor, but they always hope that Prince Chen can come to Princess Chen more. They have to inquire every day, where King Chen stayed the night before. If they heard that they were spending the night with another wife, they would chatter and tell Changsun about these things.

When the palace maids outside the door saw Chen Kefu, they seemed to be happier than any reward. They walked forward with a smile on their faces and led Chen Kefu into the bedroom.

"Princess, the palace is down!" The palace maid couldn't wait to whisper.

Chen Kefu stepped into the hall, and the melodious sound of the guzheng and beautiful singing just now came to an abrupt end.

Changsun Wugui sat on a soft chair that Chen Kefu gave her, and the white jade hands were still stroking her on the guzheng. She looked up at Chen Kefu who was walking in, with a slight smile in her eyes. She was nearly five months pregnant and gradually became pregnant. Changsun followed Chen Kefu's advice and when he stayed in the palace, he no longer wore those prosperous palace clothes, those heavy jewelry, and no longer applied cosmetics containing lead powder on his face.

Under the red candlelight, the black hair was a little messy but added a bit of lazy beauty. When I looked up, the simple silk palace skirt on my body was shining with the light of the candlelight.

"Dear!" Chen Kefu walked forward in a few steps, hugged Changsun Wugui's forehead and kissed gently, "You are getting more and more beautiful. It is said that pregnant women are the most beautiful. As expected, the whole body of the beloved concubine exudes holy maternal brilliance."

Although Changsun Wugui has been married to Chen Kefu for more than half a year, he is still not very adapted to Chen Kefu's intimate actions.

My face turned blushing instantly, and my eyes were full of shy sweetness. I didn't forget to look at the palace maids next to me. Seeing that the palace maids were covering their mouths with their hands and holding their smiles, I felt even more shy.

"Your Highness." Changsun gently tapped Chen Kefu's chest.

Chen Kefu chuckled, and was with Changsun, as if the endless tedious things in the court, military and national affairs were gone, and all that was left in his heart was warmth and relaxation.

"I still remember the meeting on Shaoshi Mountain. It was the first time I saw you, but I could see that you were different from ordinary women."

Changsun also chuckled, as if he had remembered his first meeting.

"Does Your Highness feel that I am not as gentle as a lady from a noble family?"

"How could it be? I just think you are generous and elegant. I left a deep impression on you when you first met. If you were an ordinary lady, you would probably cry when you encountered that day."

Changsun Wugui chuckled, "I am actually not a lady from a noble family. Although our ancestors were the Xianbei Tuoba clan and were also royal family. But they moved to Luoyang from Pingcheng very early with Emperor Wen. Although our grandfather and father were officials in the Sui Dynasty, their father died early, thanks to his uncle who took me and my brother Wuji in. Although he lived in Luoyang, Kyoto for more than ten years, he did not have many happy memories in his impression. He has depended on each other since he was a child, so he did not learn the virtuousness of the ladies from a noble family. He understood the hardships of life early and was precocious like a wild girl."

Chen Kefu took Changsun's hand and gently stroked her bulging belly. "Speaking of this, although the hardships in his early years made you suffer a lot, it also made you more generous and virtuous. If you met you, you were just a lady like the nobles of the princes and noble families in Kyoto, maybe we wouldn't have known each other today. Speaking of this, I would also like to thank you."

"Marrying a virtuous wife like you is a blessing for me. With you helping me manage my inner room, the family is harmonious, which saves me a lot of my mind. Moreover, your elder brother Wuji and uncle Gao Shilian are both rare talents for peace and prosperity. With them helping me, the court will be very happy."

Changsun Wugui frowned slightly, "Your Highness, I still have to tell you something clearly. Although Wuji and his uncle are talented, one is my brother and the other is my uncle. Even if they are talented, they are also relatives of the descendants. Although Wugui doesn't read much, he also knows that the power of the foreign relatives is too great and it is easy for foreign relatives to interfere in politics. This is not a good thing. Especially Wuji, who is only twenty-two now, is already the prime minister. It is really not necessary, just because he is afraid that he will only cause criticism from others. It will not only damage your noble reputation, but will also have a bad impact on the Changsun family and Wuji."

Chen Kefu shook his head, "No need to say much about my beloved concubine. I always use people to be talented, and I do not avoid relatives. I use Wuji and Gaoshilian as prime ministers, not entirely because they are your brothers and uncles, but they are both talented and loyal to me. Wuji is indeed only twenty-two years old, but I am only twenty-seven years old now, Xuanling, Ruhui, Chen Jie and others are all about thirty years old. Our court is all young people, and I am using talents in an unconventional manner."

"I asked Wuji to follow the army to fight south last year, and then let Wuji enter Hedong. This time, he was born and died, and Wuji never had any complaints. If he could help me like this, how could I let him down? Last time, Wuji hurried back to Beijing Chaoji, stayed for three days and hurried back to Hedong. Thank you for your hard work. By the way, I remember you have a half-brother named An Ye, right?"

"An Ye is the half-brother of Chen and Wuji. After his father died, he drove Wuji and me out of the house regardless of family affection. If it weren't for the uncle's care, our brother and sister would have starved to death on the streets. What did Your Highness mention him today? When he was kicked out of the house, Chen and Wuji had already swore that they had no relationship with him anymore."

Chen Kefu said: "A few days ago, he brought me a letter through a businessman who traveled to Hebei, hoping that his family would move to Beijing. I also know the old story of you brother and sister, but you are Princess Chen now and my queen in the future. If you refuse to have an affair, you will inevitably be criticized in the future. You don't have to worry about this matter. I have sent someone to pick them up and I will arrange another idle position to him at that time, that's it."

Changsun Wugui understood that Chen Kefu would definitely not like a despicable person like An Ye, but for his reputation and Wuji, he took the initiative to bring An Ye, which made Changsun grateful. But today, Chen Kefu always revealed a bad feeling inside and outside the conversation, which made her feel a little uneasy.

"Is Your Highness going to go to war again?" Changsun looked directly at Chen Kefu, his eyes full of reluctance.

Chen Kefu nodded, "The news came from the grassland that Zhao Qi, who was on the grassland, had successfully destroyed the alliance between the Western Turks and the forces of the Central Plains. He also used a trick to kill Shikui, and now he has launched a battle between the brother of Shikui, Tongyehu Khan and the new Great Khan Dalu. Dalu and Tongyehu have started a war. At present, both sides have a victory or defeat. Dalu has retreated to Shule. Currently, Dalu has occupied Shule, Yutian, Shuye, Tochar and other western regions. Tongyehu has seized the Sanmi Mountains of the Western Turkic Khan, and occupied Kucha, Yanqi, Gaochang, Tiel Xueyantuo and other Western countries, and now the tribal coalition forces that have attacked the Eastern Turkic Khan are obeying him. The powerful Western Turkic has divided into two parts, with Sanmi Mountain and Chisha Mountain as the boundary."

Speaking of the drastic changes in the Western Turks, Chen Kefu's voice could not hide the excitement and excitement. The chaos in the Western Turks not only eliminated a huge threat from the north, but also eliminated the support of the separatist forces in the northwest. At present, Dalu Khan and Tongye Hu Khan were not too late to fight each other, so how could he reach the Central Plains if he had time?

Chen Kefu stared at the northwest, where he was about to compete for.

Holding Changsun's hand, Chen Kefu said calmly, "In a few days, I will lead my army to Hedong. This battle in Hedong is related to whether our Chen family can capture the north and gain the world. This is a major issue, and I have to lead the army to fight in person. Maybe this battle will take a long time, and maybe I can't rush back until you give birth."

Changsun leaned his body against Chen Kefu's chest, "Chen Lang is the one I trust most. You can always take on great responsibilities, always conquer and win invincible. Although Hedong is to be obtained, the Tang Dynasty will certainly win the world, but if Chen Lang has any accidents, I would rather Chen Lang be just an ordinary person and weave a life with my men and women. Today is to take Hedong, and then he will still take Hedong. But if Chen Lang is not there, even if the court really unifies the Central Plains world, what can it do?"

Chen Kefu gently stroked her back and comforted her, "Actually, there is no danger in going to Hedong this time. Now all Li Tang's main forces are heading south, Taiyuan is empty, and it is the time when the imperial court takes Hedong. I just feel a little worried about you and the child in your belly. When you think about you giving birth, I can't be with you, and I always feel that I owe you."

Changsun Wugui stood up, wiped his wet eyes, and burst into tears and laughed, "Actually, I was too worried just now. With the courage of your highness, this battle in Hedong will definitely be successful. Your Highness does not need to worry too much about me and my children. The ancients said that the major affairs of the country are sacrifices and wars. Conquests are major things, and they must be done. Don't worry, if you want to do it, you still have to do it. It is better to do it with peace of mind. When you return from victory, Your Highness has time to accompany me and my children."

"My beloved concubine said it well, she is really reasonable. The biggest thing about the country is indeed sacrifices and war. I can only temporarily give up on you, mother and son. When the world is unified in the future, I will make good compensation for you." Chen Kefu thanked Changsun Wugui.
